I thought the shade of green was okay, there was just way too much of it. v2 would be fine if all of the blue and that light greenish color were the original green. Perhaps have the logo text be green as well, and the panel part with the "User CP - PMs - Logout" have the background green.

There are plenty of blue/teal themes around. We need better not-blue/teal themes. This one shows promise. I'm making a brown/orange theme for my site that is inadvertently turning out tableless, and depending on how this turns out I might borrow a couple of ideas from your design.
